A typical landfill or contaminated land site under investigation will comprise of a suitable number of gas monitoring wells, with a planned series of monitoring visits. The monitoring will include gas flow measurements, which together with methane and carbon dioxide concentrations will be used to calculate gas screening values (GSV) and hence allow the determination of whether any gas ...

Metal wires from paper pulp bales are high in value but very hard to shred and clean for selling purposes. Usually the metal wires are stuck with plastics and some remains of the pulping process. This particular type of waste is almost impossible to separate, says a landfill operator in France. Normally the only possibility to handle this type of waste is to dump it at a landfill. This is due ...

In precise industrial processes, all equipment and constituent parts must work together to drive performance and efficiency. For screening and sifting materials in the pharmaceutical, chemical, aggregate and other industries, your choice of media goes a long way toward determining the effectiveness of your machines.

ABSTRACT Replacement of hot-mill rolls is expensive and often requires production to cease during the process. Surface deterioration of rolls escalates as cooling water quality decreases. This manuscript will describe the installation and performance of a new cooling water filtration system in a northeast Ohio hot-roll mill that incorporates well proven suction scanning technology with ...

With the steady increase in poultry processing rates there has been a corresponding increase in wastewater pollutant concentrations. Despite mechanical improvements in wastewater treatment, many poultry processors continue to pay unnecessarily high fees for municipal water discharges. $100-million-annual processor, Michigan Turkey Producers, in conjunction with Lyco Manufacturing, has set up a ...

Executive summary ObjectivesThis is the second interim report of this project being carried out by ICER with support from Glass Technology Services. The project is examining potential markets for waste CRT glass. In this second stage five potential applications have been investigated, three for screen glass which does not contain lead and two for lead-containing funnel glass ...

Offshore drilling, with today’s advanced technology, allows a larger amount of the drilling to be done in the same well. This implies drilling over a far longer distance and the use of directional drill technology. Although this gives major cost and logistic advantages it also greatly increasing wear on the drill string and casing. This wear and the string/casing friction (where they touch) ...
